This year, the mentors and speakers include Ada Solomon, Head of the Board of the European Film Academy, Mark Foligno, executive producer at The King’s Speech, and Meg Thomson, EVP, Globalgate Entertainment, among others.

Ligia Ciornei is the festival’s CEO, and the team includes Viorel Chesaru as Chief Financial Officer.
